The 2007 Toast for Professor Tolkien

For all Lord of the Rings fans everywhere the Tolkien Society is initiating a toast for Professor Tolkien on his birthday. They write -

On January 3rd Tolkien fans around the world are invited to raise a glass and toast the birthday of this much loved author at 21:00 (9 pm) your local time.

The toast is “The Professor”.

For those unfamiliar with British toast-drinking ceremonies:

To make the Birthday Toast, you stand, raise a glass of your choice of drink (not necessarily alcoholic), and say the words ‘The Professor’ before taking a sip (or swig, if that’s more appropriate for your drink). Sit and enjoy the rest of your drink.

So all of us Tolkien geeks will once again prove our love of Tolkien’s works by honoring him in this way.

Cheers!
